It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge. Here’s a gorgeous fall color combo for you to use!
TRANSLUCENT FLORALS
I wanted to do some fall flowers using this color combination, so I started looking through my stash. I ended up combining two die sets…Translucent Florals and Changing Leaves…both online exclusives…to make this card! I had to go and verify that Translucent Florals was still available to purchase!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Copper Clay cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic Beige was embossed with the Changing Leaves Hybrid Embossing Folder and added to the front.
- A 2 x 5-1/4 piece of Sweet Days of Autumn Designer Paper (Online Exclusive) was added to the left side.
- The flower petals were cut from Copper Clay cardstock using the Translucent Florals Dies, then sponged along the edges and centers with Copper Clay Ink and adhered together. I made one large and two small flower clusters. The centers are Wild Wheat sponged with Copper Clay Ink.
- The leaves were cut from Wild Wheat using the Translucent Florals Dies and sponged with Copper Clay Ink.
- All the flowers and leaves were assembled on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The skeleton leaves and branches were cut from Early Espresso using the Changing Leaves Dies, then added tucked under the flowers on the front.
- The greeting from Translucent Florals was stamped with Early Espresso Ink on a 3/4 x 2 piece of Basic Beige cardstock and the end cut at an angle. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some rust Faux Glass Dots were added to the center of the flowers.
Isn’t that a pretty card for a fall birthday? I was so pleased with how it turned out! I wouldn’t normally think of flowers in these colors! OK, go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Stamping Friends.
